Andrew + Caitlin | Engaged

A Jefferson Park Engagement Shoot

filed in:

There are a few things happening in my life that make me feel old. I know, I know…. 27 isn’t OLD…. but I’m getting closer and closer to the big 3-0 and it’s kinda freaking me out a little bit!! I don’t realize how fast time is flying by until I do things like photograph my college roommate’s little sister’s weddings… x3! I remember when these girls were in high school and now they’re getting married!! When I was in college, I remember traveling up to PA to stay with Steph’s family for the weekend and Caitlin was still in high school. We kind of knew each other back then but it wasn’t until Caitlin graduated and came down to CNU that I really felt like we got to KNOW her and it turns out, she’s just as awesome as her sister. :)

I wasn’t at CNU very long when Caitlin was there but I remember hearing about her meeting Andrew through Steph and then I started to see pictures pop up online. They were cute. I mean, you’ll see what I mean when you scroll through their pictures. They’re the type of couple that make you smile when you see pictures of them together. I’ve seen them together from a distance and so it was so nice to get to spend two hours with them and experience them as a couple this past week. The more streets we walked down and the more pictures we took, the more I looked forward to their wedding. If they are anything like they were during their engagement session… their wedding is going to be awesome! I think it should be a requirement that all couples are chill, relaxed and up for anything on their wedding day. :)

I’m calling it right now, these two are going to look GOOD all dressed up on their wedding day….. and excited as I am to take their portraits, I think I’m even more excited to celebrate with their friends and their awesome families!! If there’s anything I remember about spending time with the Dunn family in college, it’s that they know how to have a good time!! August is going to be here before we know it and we can’t wait!!! Andrew and Caitlin, we love you guys! We couldn’t be more excited for you and this next season of life!! Thank you for being awesome models, perfect nuzzlers (that one’s for you Alex:):) and for trying out sketchy new locations with me in Church Hill! :) Enjoy!!!
